Ingredients

  • 2 medium sweet potatoes (about 1 pound), peeled and diced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup plain yogurt (Greek or regular)
  • 1/4 cup granola
  • 2 tablespoons honey (optional)
  • Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)

How to Make Roasted Sweet Potatoes with Yogurt and Granola

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  2. In a large bowl, toss the diced sweet potatoes with olive oil, cinnamon, and salt until evenly coated.
  3. Spread the sweet potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until tender and caramelized, stirring halfway through for even cooking.
  4. While the sweet potatoes are roasting, prepare the topping. In a small bowl, mix the yogurt and honey, if using, until well combined.
  5. Once the sweet potatoes are done, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly.
  6. To serve, place a generous scoop of roasted sweet potatoes on a plate or in a bowl. Top with the yogurt mixture and sprinkle with granola. Garnish with fresh mint leaves if desired.

Tips for the Best Results

  • Ensure sweet potatoes are cut into uniform pieces for even cooking.
  • Adjust the amount of cinnamon based on your preference for sweetness.
  • For a touch of extra flavor, add a pinch of nutmeg or ginger to the sweet potato mix before roasting.

Easy Variations

  • Swap plain yogurt for flavored yogurt to add a different twist.
  • Use different nuts or seeds in place of granola for added crunch.
  • Drizzle with maple syrup instead of honey for a different sweetness profile.
  • Add fresh fruit like berries or banana slices on top for an extra burst of flavor.

What to Serve With It

  • A simple green salad with a vinaigrette dressing.
  • Grilled chicken or fish for a protein-packed meal.
  • Quinoa or couscous for a hearty side dish.
  • An egg, poached or fried, for a filling breakfast option.

Storage and Reheating

Store leftover roasted sweet potatoes in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave until warmed through. Keep yogurt and granola separate until ready to serve for the best texture.
